Wonderful moody image!
(Best viewed on a well-calibrated display, folks.)
I guess you answered the question before already: Why "the blue flower"?

This should most certainly be put in the HoF....Amazing work.

I don't see any blue flower, but I do spot a wet bird... ;)
Exceptional render. So much foliage and the moody morning fumes in the air...
may I ask for rendertime or should be too afraid?

Yes ;)
Usually I do hate it to give more than a hint for possible
interpretations but in this case a bit of explanation might be in place:
"The Blue Flower" - "Die blaue Blume" was coined by the German 18th
century writer Novalis. The phrase is a metaphor for for search for the
unreachable, unfulfilled love and desire.
Especially a desire for a "simple world" including an idealized and
naive picture of nature and the middle ages was characteristic for the
early German romantic period.
And those ideas (within contemporary esoteric and anti-scientific
tendencies) have still quite some impact on the cultural and political
situation in the present while on the other hand already German late
romantic poets and philosophers (e.g. Heinrich Heine) did use an ironic
take on this naive world view.
The mixed forest trees seen within the image would have been a common
view in the 18th century German low mountain range. But nowadays no such
combination of trees and shrubs does exist anymore in the wild.
You'll need either a time-machine or CGI to do this shot ;)
So there is an image titled "The Blue Flower" that carefully avoids do
show any blue flower.

When does it start to hurt you?
4 days with an i7### [at] 3 5GHz due multiple nested media containers. Well, a
bit slower than the 35fps I did get with Skyrim but also a bit more
moody ;)

Sounds reasonable to me. And definitely worthwhile.

torture.

no doubt. Some postprocessing should do the trick, no?

can't deny that.
